Important Car Accident Documents

Auto Accident Attorneys in Norfolk, VA

From the moment you are injured in a
car accident, you should keep all documents pertaining to the accident and your medical
treatment, as these will be necessary to prove your claim. However, if
you are unable to collect all of these documents,
our attorneys can help you to get them while you focus on healing. It is also important
to remember to only speak with your Norfolk car accident lawyer, as the
other party's insurance agency may contact you to press for a settlement.

Some of the most important car accident documents we will need to review
to prepare your case include:

Insurance policy: You should have a copy of your insurance policy for us to review what
type of an insurance recovery you may be entitled to. Your insurance company
can provide one if you do not have one at home. You may be able to get
a copy of your policy and declarations page online from your insurance company.

Evidence of premium payments: Please bring in any insurance statements you have, as well as your insurance cards.

Information exchanged at the accident scene: If you are fortunate enough to have eyewitnesses to your accident, you
should bring in their information and statements. Signed eyewitness statements
help a car accident case tremendously.

Police report: Police reports contain very important information that allows us to fully
understand the details of your case. If you do not have a copy of the
accident report, we will be able to obtain one on your behalf.

Tickets/citations related to the accident: If you were issued a ticket at the scene of the accident, we will also
need to see this.

Photographs or videos: The best way to preserve evidence is with photographs or videos of the
accident scene. Take pictures of the vehicles, the surrounding area and
any contributors to the accident such as road debris or obscured traffic
signs. Do not post any photography or videography on social media sites
such as YouTube, Facebook, or Flickr.
